My new favorite iphone App

This is my new homescreen on my iPhone
I'm loving it! It's an App i found on Pinterest called Cocoppa

Adding New Stylish Icon's for your APP's

1. It's pretty easy to do too! First Download the Cocoppa App for FREE for the App Store.

2. Open the App and Scroll though the Icons list, and "Like" each one you might want to Add to your phone.

3. Then Go To "MYPAGE" at the bottom right. Select "Like" at top right.

4. Click your first Icon to add. I suggest starting with preinstalled apple apps as such:

    - Maps= Maps://
    - Music= Music://
    - Mail= Mail://
    - Messages= SMS://
    - App Store=       
        http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware? 
        id=294409923&mt=8

These are currently the only preinstalled Apps available. The others will be added soon hopefully, fingers crossed. (Phone, Safari, Clock, Notes, & Photos, do not have any icon codes as far as I know)

Select "Set Up Link", Select "URL" and Enter the URL for the App, look above for the URL code for each App available.


  5. For additional Apps including:

    - Facebook
    - Twitter
    - Pinterest
    - Google
    - Etsy
    - other purchased Apps


 Select "Set Up Link", Select "App Search", search list for App, or use Search box to find app. Some are easier to find then others.

6. Confirmation Screen, just check over the correct Icon Name and click "OK".

7. Click "Yes" to pop up Confirmation Bubble.

8. The screen will switch to Safari and Press the Center Bottom Button, the little box with the arrow pointing right (sorry I don't the name for it, download maybe)

9. Click "Add to Home Screen".

10. A new screen will pop up again, type the Icon name you want your icon to show under the App on your screen. Most of them will already have the correct icon name, but some don't.

11. Click "Add".

12. The last step in to rearrange your App's as you want.

Important Note: DO NOT Delete Your Original App's, just move them to the very back screen on your phone. If you Delete them, the link to the New Icon will not work and you will no longer have that App.

Adding a Wallpaper to your Homescreen

1. Browse Wallpaper's. Select your favorite's and Click,
    "Save to Camera Roll". When the blue bubble pops up, select "OK".

2. Once saved to your Camera Roll. Back out of Cocoppa App and go to Photo's App.

3. Go to your Camera Roll and Select the Photo or Wallpaper you want to choose for the background of your Homescreen. Click the Bottom left hand button (once again the little box with the arrow pointing right).

4. Select "Use as Wallpaper".

5. Voila!!! Back out of App and go check out your new Homescreen. It might take a few tries before you find one, that you like the look of..Well at least it me a few times! :) Have fun, and post your new home screen photos on our Facebook page, I can't wait to check your's out!
